With the American Army in France.
—The third phase of the big German
drive has been halted for a week now
with no signs of a renewal. With the
main show halted interest has cen-
tered in the exploits of the American
troops at various points along the line.
The Huns have finally been convinced
after four or five unsuccessful assaults
on Cantigny, that cost them bitterly
in men, that Cantigny is an American
town and are letting it alone.
Several other engagements resulted
esually favorbly to the American
troops but the most Important battle
to date In which the Yankees have
been involved was the fight at Cha-
teau-Thierry In which Col. Doyen's
marines completely demoralized the
Huns.
The marines attacked the Germans
at dawn and gained two and one-quar-
ter miles over a two and one-half mile
front and captured 100 prisoners in
the Chateau-Thierry sector. The
French, attacking at the same time on
the left, took 160 prisoners.
The Americans now hold all the im-
portant high ground northwest of Cha-
teau-Thierry. The marines again at-
tacked at 7 o’clock in the evening.
The fight started at 3:45 o’clock
In the morning and the Americans had
attained all their objectives by break-
fast time.
The Americans have been pressing
the Germans so hard that the enemy
has been forced to throw three new
divisions of his best troops in the line
during the last three days.
The Americans are like tigers. Their
commanders have all they can do to
hold the men in check. Even the |
wounded are enthusiastic and eager
to fight. They are proud of their
wounds. A general who visited a field
dressing station said he was elated
by the sight.
Tho Americans sang and whistled
“Yankee Doodle” and cheered as they
went over the top. They made their
way swiftly through the German dead
that lay strewn in No Man’s Land.
In addition to prisoners the Ameri-
cans captured ten machine guns. Ger-
man prisoners said they had not been
fed for four days, owing to the deadly
fire from the French and American
guns which prevented the bringing up
of supplies.
These Germans were without hel-
mets. They were tired of the war.
They had been told the British op-
posed them, as their commanders
were afraid to let them know that it
was the Americans.
Guns Are Thundering.
The Germans were cleared out of
Veullly wood also by the Americans.
Tho fiercest fighting was in progress
at last reports near Torcy, which lies
about two and a half miles east of
Veullly.
The French attack was to straight-
en out the American line and It was
a brilliant performance. In this they
were assisted by American forces.
American infantry cleaned out one
group of thirty five Uhlans, who were
mounted.
“Don’t let one escape,” shouted a
big American. All but one was killed;
he was captured

The War SpiriL
“The war spirit that pervades our
people from top to bottom,” said
Mayor Ilylan at a reception In New
York, “Is a truly marvelous thing.
“I heard the other day of a contrac-
tor who got a vast ditch built for noth-

that the boys of the neighborhood could
help him dig a trench if they wanted

“That yachting party are telling the

“Why, even the yachts are lying to.”

He hesitated a moment, then replied:

Scenes of Prosperity
Are Common in Western Canada
The thousands of U. S. farmers who have accepted
Canada's generous offer to settle on homesteads or buy
farm land in her provinces have been well repaid by
bountiful crops of wheat and other grains.
Where you can buy good farm land at $15 to $3$
f sr acre—get $2 a bushel for wheat and raise 20 to
45 bushels te the acre you are bound to make money
—that’s what you can do in Western Canada.
In the provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan or
Alberta you can get a
HOMESTEAD OF 160 ACRES FREE
and other land at very low prices.
During tnanyyeara Canadian
wheat fields have averaged 20 bushels
to the acre — many yields as high as
45 bushels to the acre. Wonderful
crops also of Oats, Barley* and Flax.
Mixed Farming is as profitable an
industry as grain raising. Good
schools, churches; markets convenient,
climate excellent. Write for literature and
